    May 8 2020
    Join The Beer Connoisseur for this episode of the Beer Buyers Club Show with featured brewers Michal Frankowicz, head brewer of Fort George Brewery in Astoria, Oregon, Dan Cady, head brewer of Mikkeller Brewing San Diego, and Jeremy Roberts, founder of 903 Brewers in Sherman, Texas. Journey through guided tastings of Fort George's Fanzine an American IPA, Mikkeller's Beer Geek Vanilla Shake an Imperial Oatmeal Stout with coffee and vanilla and 903 Brewers' Painkiller Pineapple Orange Cherry Slushy a smoothie-style fruited Gose. About Fanzine "In an ever-hazier world, West Coast IPAs have nearly gone the way of the landline and fax machine. As the condensation slowly evaporates from the window of the indie punk bookstore, Fanzine IPA comes into focus – a crisp, clear, West Coast style collaborative presentation from Fort George Brewery and Grains of Wrath Brewery. Fanzines are deeply rooted in the DIY ethos of the fiercely independent, small-run, self-published, xeroxed and stapled testaments to the object of a true fan’s reverence. The Fanzine IPA can features the art of independent folk legend Michael Hurley, who himself is the subject of a Fanzine. A piney bitterness backs up the heavy hop additions, with grapefruit and other citrus notes. Mild sweetness from the malt bill lingers with a taste of orange juice." About Beer Geek Vanilla Shake "In the beer geek breakfast series – the beer that really put Mikkeller on the map, we decided to shake things up by adding a truckload of vanilla to the french press coffee trick, creating a whole new dimension to the beer that are loved by freaks and geeks worldwide. It’s dark, dangerous, sweet and incredibly tasty as you would expect, but most of all; it’s ready to conquer your breakfast table routines." About Painkiller Pineapple Orange Cherry Slushy "This is a Tiki cocktail-inspired beer. It is a Gose made with pineapple, orange and coconut. One drink and you'll feel like you're in the Caribbean sitting by the beach."
